Thu Apr 3 01:27:08 UTC 2014

Hi Mathew, this is Helga! I'm interested, but first I need to talk to my 
parents since I use their budget. For how much are you offering for it? And 
does it come with  a Dux berry software? Just curious! Hope to hear from you 
soon. Thanks and God bless!!

Hi all.
I believe I still have an old Romeo 25 embosser, the one with the serial and 
parallel ports on it and its in great condition.
All you would have to do is get a USB to serial adapter from Amazon.
If anyone's interested, let me know and I'll see what I can do.
